SHERMAN, April 4. - Yesterday
morning about II O'Clock boy by the
name of James Murphy, who has lived
Oh the place of Frank Walden for a
number of years past, went out 10 lar

pasture near by and succeeded in
throwing the moose about the animals

Instead of letting 60 the rope it APP
pears that Murphy still held TO it and
was jerked complete somersault,
lighting on the hard ground with his
full weight on his neck and shoulder
A number of people were looking at
the whole transaction and rushed out
to where the PROSTATE boy lay perfect
ly motionless. Efforts were made to
resusc.tate him, but to no effect, and
the limp and helpless form of the un-
fortunate boy was picked up and car
Ticd to the house, which is some dis
lance from the scene ofthe occurrence
A courier was dispatched Tor a doctor
at once, who states that the boy is dead
beyond all doubt.

Sew York Journal Of Commerce in

ex.sherifi of this county, and at pres
ent night Waterman and special dep
uty sheriff, shot and killed Horace
Wombald Sunday morning at 2 o'clock
in Stewart a. Crensf avs saloon. From
the evidence taken at the inquest,
connected with other facts, it appears
that Wombald was drinking and had
been firing off his pistol in the White
Elephant saloon. Wombald left that
saloon and went to the place where he
met his death while resisting arrest
by Spears. lie called Spears very hard
names and threatened 70 take away
Spears pistol, and had hold of his
arm at the time he was killed. Wom-
bald leaves a young wife, having been
married only one month, and had sew
eral friends in the town. Spears is a
very popular man, aud has the reputa
ton Of being quiet and orderly aud an
efficient officer. Spears gave bond in

Must Have Faith to Fast.

There is certain Mr.. John Grscom
in New York who has. according to the
Medical Record OF that city, a theory
of his own 10 account for the success
of the number of persons who are now
fasting for four or five weeks at time.
According to him. it is all matter Of
faith, and any person who will begin
TO fast with full belief that it can be
done without harm, will succeed.
with the prejudice against fasting
wholly removed" he says. anyone
in the enjoyment of perfect health
could fast two or three weeks without
inconvenience; but If a man should fast
simply as an experiment, without full
belief that he could do it, he would kill
himself" The use of Succ's red Ii.
quid, therefore. becomes plain--.t Is .
medicine for the mind, and gives to the
faster the necessary confidence. Girls
com saws that he has tasted for more
than three weeks at time, and his
statement that the craving Tor food
passes of at the end of foriy-eight
hours is confirmed by the evidence of
involuntary fasters. Hunger is much
less imperious craving than thirst,
which grows stronger with every hour
Of abstention from fluids. The organ
ism Of a healthy man has extensive
reserves in the fat which is stored in
the layers of adipose tissue beneath the
skin and in other situations; when the
habit Of drawing upon the food for the
energy necessary for maintaining the
physiolog cal processes IS broken dur
ing the first forty-eight hours. the sub
sequent drafts on the reserve are not
attended by so much discomfort as dur
the period of Transition. -HalyaT Critic.

MARRIAGE OF UNEQUALS.
Women Moro Likely Than Men To
Marry Beneath Their Intellectual
station.

Marry Beneath Their Intellectual
station.
The genius Of Milton never found n
sweeter theme than the ideal marriage
OF our first parents in Eden, yet he
who wrote so beautifully of the married
state was himself the victim of an
unhappy marriage. Indeed, men of
genius have, perhaps, been more unfor-
tunate in this respect than ordinary
mortals, because living on higher
plane OF thought, it was more difficult
for them to find helpmato equal to
themselves. The same is true, al
though not to the same extent, of wo-
men of genius who have married men
inferior to themselves in mind, because
Il woman nature has not only more
endurance, but more adaptability in it
than mans. The man soon grows
impatient of the conversation of II
frivolous wife, especially if she disturbs
his mental occupations, but the woman
oftens feels a pleasure inthe homage OF
a commonplace hus band if only he be
an honest and considerable fellow, and
with her more than man pity is akin
to love- Hence il is that there are
probably moro clever and highly gifted
women to throw themselves away, rs
the phrase is, upon agood naturod SIM
pleton, than the talented men who fall
in love with women who are not in in
tellectual sympathy with them.
The world "marries and is given in
marriage" and the wedding bells ring
on from age to age increasingly, and
yet how few who witness the life con-
tract of brides and bridegrooms stop to
consider the tremendous Importance of
SO brief ceremony. Upon the mental,
moral and physical qualities OF the man
and of the woman may depend the ac-
tons and results of actions OF a sue
cesson of human beings in generations
yet to come. The ungoverned will
desccnds from sire to son, and the sccre.
tivcness or, aquisitivcness uncontrolled
by other qualities in the father or the
mother may make the theft, the liar or
the miscr, who, few decades hence.
will be the black sheep Of the family
fold. An ungovernable temper mar
riod to an mgovornablc temper may
beget the murderer whom society Is
forced to hang for its own protection,
but who may be as irresponsible be-
fore the tribunal of supreme justice as
the lunatic is now held before our
earthly courts.
1t has been said, coarsely, perhaps,
in the ears of modern refinement, but
with perfect truth, that while we take
every precaution to insure high quail
ties in the highest types of dogs and
horses, we seem to think it u matter of
no consequence to insure noble ma
ture to our own ofisprings. -BroohlyD
